Fabio Borini: Says Cats will go on the attack at Old Trafford

The Black Cats will be looking to make their first major cup final in 22 years when they run out at Old Trafford for the second leg.

Gus Poyet has led Sunderland to something of a renaissance since the departure of Paolo Di Canio - the Uruguayan has claimed 17 of the club's 18 points since his arrival in early October - and a League Cup final would illustrate the drastic improvement perfectly.

Manchester United manager David Moyes has promised that his side will be ready on Wednesday, feeling that they were let down by officials for the decision to award a first-leg penalty that Borini subsequently converted at the Stadium of Light.
